Naminoue Beach, Urban beach in Naha, Japan
Naminoue Beach is an urban shoreline in central Naha that divides into two sections: the Wakasa side and the Tsuji side, each with different facilities. The beach features areas set up for recreational activities and water sports.
This shoreline became a public recreation facility in 1991, opening as the first designated swimming area in central Naha. This development gave residents and visitors a dedicated coastal space to enjoy.
This place holds spiritual importance as part of the Eight Shrines of Ryukyu, and local people know it by the name Namminsan. Visitors can sense this religious connection while exploring the shoreline.
Swimming hours run from late April through October, opening at 9:00 AM and closing at 6:00 PM, with extended evening hours until 7:00 PM during summer months. Plan your visit according to these seasonal schedules.
This location merges city infrastructure with the natural shoreline, with elevated highways and modern buildings creating an unusual framework around the sand and water. This urban-nature blend defines the character of the swimming area.
